Me, Myself & I... Lower carb, fasting, real live foods

[Mis-behave]

Wi today.. I'm 89kg..., up from last week.. But I'm ok with that!

Totm arrived this morning and yesterday I ate loads of cake lol! At least I understand my carb craving lol

Feeling better this morning, more in control of my cravings

I also understand that I need to keep my cals lower than what I have been eating recently. So my focus for the future is to eat quality rather than quantity!

Also back to kettlercise on Monday...

 

[Mis-behave]

This months totm has not made me feel as bad as last month! Last month I felt as if the plug had been pulled.. This month I'm tired but not feeling flat.

Also noticed that I can park better! Strange but true, when I was pregnant and up till lately I had lost the ability to park in small spaces lol last week and today I reversed in no probs

Today have been to kettlercise class - felt good - think I will ache tomorrow lol

Food today has been good.
Breakfast: almonds, cashews, primal trail mix
Snack after kettlercise: more primal trail mix
Lunch: salad combination, with chicken breast steaks, bacon rashers
Dinner: Hairy bikers lamb tagine plus veggies

Pancake Day., arrowroot pancakes .. Yummy ..
Did make kids and rest of household normal pancakes lol and I didn't eat any normal pancakes - (slowly rubbing the marks off my halo lol) used spelt flour rather than plain white flour..

Better than homemade beans and cottage cheese plus "B R E A D" lol

Managed to keep my carbs down today lol

No bread for at least a week, if not more

He's ok'ed going swimming - but no butterfly lol gentle breast stroke

Also told me how to start doing pull-ups lol need to start with pull squats just to see if my shoulder/ arm will take my weight lol

Have been thinking of doing wing chun / martial arts again - but will have to check with instructor if they are ok with me and my shoulder etc ., used to do it back in my mid twenties .. Much older now lol

I love humous, I buy the Tesco Reduced Fat Red Pepper one when I decide I've earned a treat - yum! xx

 

[Mis-behave]

Yummy! Love hummus loads garlic and lemon ..

If you've got a food processor it doesn't have to be a treat. You just blitz the chick peas as fine as possible. Then add half a tub of quark garlic lemon and pepper and keep blitzing until smoother. It's the same texture as shop bought and totally guilt free.
